The stabilization platform increases patient comfort, minimizing movement and supporting longer dwelling.
BD Nexiva IV Overview
BD Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System is a complete catheter system with tubing and extension set for administering safer IV therapy. A complete closed system (COS) with a preattached extension set reduces leakage and exposure to blood in comparison to a traditional open system (MOS) IV catheter that attaches separately. It also offers a soft, flexible platform specifically designed for needle stability and comfort decreasing movement within the vessel. BD Nexiva preserves the site longer to minimize complications for longer dwell times.1
The Nexiva Catheter has power injection compatibility, minimizing the need to change the tubing. The Nexiva IV is available in a variety of needle gauge options for one-time use. It's disposable and packaged sterile to be ready to use.
